The following interview with Roland de Wolf, the Chairman of the Board at the Saffier Residentie Group, is part of a larger study that included exploring innovations in elder care in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is one country that provides senior care with a strong focus on overall wellbeing and personal freedom and less of an emphasis on the medical aspects of chronic illness and long term care.

In this interview, de Wolf describes the Saffier Residentie Group, which runs ten elder care homes in the Netherlands that are designed for independent living. This design allows residents to feel at home by granting them access to the highest possible quality of independent living. De Wolf describes how technology helps staff monitor residents and respond in cases of emergency, while still preserving the seniors’ sense of independence.

The Saffier Residentie Group is an example of how monitored but independent living can make residents feel comfortable in elder care homes. The facility also implements its delivery system at lower operational costs than those in regular nursing homes.
